Packers Blank Washington, Rutherford Winner
It was not a good day at the plate for the Washington Eagles. They came up empty when it mattered against Cincinnati Packers right-hander Damon Rutherford, who scattered 6 hits across 9 innings and held the Eagles scoreless.

"We had 6 hits so I know he wasn't completely untouchable, but he was close," Washington manager Brandon Tucker said later.

Rutherford chalked up 3 strikeouts and 1 walk in the 3-0 Packers win.

Over the season Rutherford has thrown 205.1 innings and dished out 107 strikeouts with a 7-13 mark and a 3.73 ERA.
